Hey!!! Sunday looks promising!

ENE @ 6 sec offshore? Something seems a little fishy

 

yeah i'm keeping my fingers crossed..the way it's been going though i wouldn't be surprise if it changed..

 

I committed to working this weekend because it looked flat, now it says shoulder to head high and clean. Very disapointing.

 

The chart doesnt match the graph. dont see it happening, but I do wish everyone a chest high day, I know I need it.

 

Big burst of E swell for sunday without any east winds. Hmm...glitch maybe?

The NOAA WW3 model is predicting small conditions all weekend.

 

i'm going with glitch - weather reports are for sun as well.

 

You will likely be the only one thats not disappointed...

 

Haha..there won't be waves on Sunday. LOL

Figure if I downplay it...we might actually get some.

 

Trying to figure this out...It looks like the wave graphs are based off of the previous GFS run, which had the storm tracking just off the coast all the way up into New England. On the other hand, the wave maps (which are updated more frequently) look to be based off of the current GFS model which has the storm heading off the coast of North Carolina and out to sea. I think that's where the discrepancy comes from.

 

I think you nailed it...
The 00z NOAA wavewatch III run showed a big pulse of E swell for sunday. like 6 feet at 8 seconds off north jersey/island. I usually dont check the 0z run because it comes out at midnight. By 6 a.m. the 06z run is out and that one is showing small for sunday. Crazy.

 

Correct.... Allthough, its the GFS run we are dependent on, which provides the wind data input for Wavewatch and Swellinfo model runs.

 

I'm just not seeing it on this one. I can't even place the system in our swell window at this point.

God, I hope I'm wrong...

 

winds are going to be hard east
